One of New Adventures’ most popular and beloved productions, Matthew Bourne’s CINDERELLA is a thrilling and evocative love story, set in London during the Second World War.
This epic interpretation of the classic fairytale, has, at its heart, a true war-time romance. A chance meeting results in a magical night for Cinderella and her dashing young RAF pilot, together just long enough to fall in love before being parted by the horrors of the Blitz.
In addition to the show itself, the Imperial War Museum will be an official partner of the 2026-27 tour, which will see New Adventures will run dance workshops based on Cinderella during the museum’s Big Story Festival on Sunday 25 and Monday 26 October, inspired by their latest exhibition Childhood in War.The museum will also host the Cinderella cast for a research day at its exhibitions, and the Cinderella programme will feature a discussion with set and costume designer, Lez Brotherston, and IWM curator, James Taylor, around wartime artefacts and how they influenced the show’s design.
